One could travel through the spheres of our biological realm and succumb to the rush-rush of modernity, but an artist always has the best perspective of reality. The sciences can’t pinpoint abstract thought. Abstractness furthers our goals and brings us to a new point. For those that aren’t schooled in classical music; the Romanticist movement was when [summon]
Hails to Magister Templi! Tell us a little of the band, if you will, for the uninitiated! Baphomet: We’re a bunch of hairy, beer drinking metal heads from the worn out, but charming town of Oslo, Norway. We’re all raised here and I guess none of us will ever leave this place, which makes Magister [summon]
Hails to Algide! Tell us about this debut EP of yours, ‘Mortifier’, if you will! What can fans expect from these four rituals? This EP groups our first 4 titles. They represent the beginnings of the human destruction. Fans will find there a French Unholy Black Metal! What is the history of Algide? This [summon]
Tell us about your demo, ‘Death of the Flesh’! Well, it’s just the first offering from Nex Carnis and our first songwriting/recording experience.‘Death of the Flesh’ is the literal translation of Nex Carnis from Latin. It’s about darkness of mankind and its progress toward emptiness. Besides, Give me a history of Nex Carnis, if you [summon]
Greetings to The Amenta! Tell us what fans can expect from you new full length, ‘Flesh is Heir’! Timothy Pope: Hello. Thank you very much for the interview. “Flesh is Heir” is a very unique album.

Breathing Problem are one of those anomalies that will completely wrack your mind upon initial contact with them because you enjoy and are subsequently intrigued by its ability to disturb you emotionally and question your sanity through a realization of what you are hearing AND feeling. Unlike many of my PE/noise/ dark ambient/death industrial listens [summon]
I normally don’t review demos and I am not certain why. Perhaps they are reserved for potential labels and I just don’t get many in my mailbox. Maybe I hear a sample of them online and am not impressed, telling the band to ‘contact me when the debut is out’. Perhaps a Myspace page doesn’t [summon]
There are those bands that you wait an eternity to see, and when you do the feeling of exhilaration is too great for mere words to describe. Absu is one such band. Having first embraced their early recordings when I in high school (which was a little more than 15 and a little less than [summon]
I’ve been a long time fan of Solitude Productions eventhough the vast majority of their releases are in the My Dying Bride/Novembers Doom vein but every set of quarterly releases from them and their brother label, BadMoodMan, yield a release that’s something that honestly wows me and Darktrance is one of those releases. It’s tagged [summon]
My main beef with the music scene is that quality bands are often bypassed due to the sheer amount of music that’s easily accessible. I wanted to review ‘Revelations of the Ethereal’ for a few reasons: 1. The album cover: Nature’s devastation is often overlooked due to people lunging straight into mundanity – the [summon]
